Panmure (New Zealand electorate)

Panmure is a former New Zealand parliamentary electorate in the southern suburbs of the city of Auckland, from 1984 to 1996.

The 1981 census had shown that the North Island had experienced further population growth, and three additional general seats were created through the 1983 electoral redistribution, bringing the total number of electorates to 95.

It was first held by Bob Tizard, who had first been elected in 1957 in Tamaki and who had since 1972 represented the Otahuhu electorate.

[5] At the 1987 election, she had stood in the Remuera electorate, where she got close to unseating National's Doug Graham.

[6] When the Panmure electorate was abolished in 1996, Judith Tizard stood instead in Auckland Central.
